1t is quite likely that the people of Cincinnati
and the bankers of Ohio will not encourage
another grain-gambling hank for the next year
or two. Their losses cannot yet be measured
but reports indicate that depostOrs Will proba-
bly, Ioso everything that the country banks OF
Ohio. which have been induced to deposit largo
" with the gamblers bank ut Cincinnati, will
su(fer severely. and that the aggregate loss
will run from $6,OOO,OO0 TO SlOOOO,oOo.
II is rather expensive lesson But 1t would
be worth all its cost if it would lead sensible
dcpositors and Legitimate business firms every

Chicago has in this instance captured n large
sum Of money from Cincinnati sharpers and
their dupcs. Most Of the money has gone into
the pockets of Chicago and other spectators.
and into the coifers of elevator and railroad
companies. which havo made large sums by
charges for transportation and carrying wheat
Brokerage has also absorbed n share of the
funds lost. and another considerable slice,
probably a fifth or sixth, is now tangled up
in litigation. But the marvel Of the day is
that cool and clcar-hcadcd business men suf-
fcrcd themselves to be so long imposed upon
by clique of reckless gamblers. and so thor
oughly that few dared to anticipate any other
price for wheat than that which the clique
might please to make. There were sane men
who knew perfectly well that the advance was
in defiance Of facts that the supply in the coun-
try was far larger than the gamblers had sup
posed Yet for months the clique by sheer i'm
pudcncc and the power of money partly stolen.
imposed its own wild gucsscs upon thousands
of men who had every reason to trust their
own information. The outcome indicates that
the clique probably did hold at one time con
tracts for 10 100000 bushels or more, because
unless It's operations far exceeded the stock OF
visible wheat. there is no way Of accounting for
the enormous loss.
The men who have plundcrcd Cincinnati de-
nositors and Ohio banks In this fashion arc likely
to be punished Other men who rskcd trust

POPULATION OYER 81, 200, 600

An increase in immigration Of %, 400 in May.
and an increase of $4,000 in eleven months
ending with May, make it plain that over half
million will be added to the population OF the
limited States by immigration alone during the
fiscal year now nearly closed. The number oil
Immigrants officially reported for eleven months
of the wear is 1860, and the newcomers in
June will swell the number to nearly if not
outo half a million, while the official statements
entirely omits all immigration from Canada and
Mexico across the border and tho number OF
such immigrants is known to be considerable.
In 1ssl-'S5. the last year for which it was
officially reported. this immigration was 1851 !;
with the general decline in immigration last
year il may have fallen to 10000, but with the
general increase this year it has probably risen
to 40 900 or more.
The most accurate computation for the in
crease Of population during twenty years ending
with 1850 proves to be that which allows two
Der cent yearly for increase by the excess OF
births over deaths and then adds the imml-
grafton each year. AT that rate the increase

Wolff, who has a diplomatic reputation to make,

years of negotiation and intrigue The treaty

Salisbury Government has been condemned
with faint praise by its own organs for negoti-

THE VOUEN AHEAD.

Tho Cambridge examinations have been signal
lied this wear by a series of splendid victories for
the women Girton and NEWMAN, which not many
wears ago were scarcely ever mentioned by tho
English prcss save to point joke, have dis
tanccd the venerable old foundations. A GIton
girl is the only person, male female, who has
reached the honoTs of senior classic. In the
med eval and modern languages examination a
Newnham girl is tho only occupant OF the first
class. Two other ladies have attained tho first
class in the second part OF the examinations. Here
be subjects for conmon-room consideration.
The dons looked soury upon the proposition to
admit the Newman and Grton and other girls to
the Cambridge examinations at first and If it is to
their credit that they consented TO the innovation
there can be little doubt that they expected it TO
demonstrate the intellectual inferiority of women.

Great Britain have been up and coming and each
ear larger proportion of them has received honors

An UNSATISFACTORY VERDICT.

The verdict Of the Coroncrs jury in the case
of Lena Zorn is decidedly unsatisfactory. The
conclusion that the death of the child was acct
dental is not in accordance with the known
facts but is in defiance of the only rational in
ferences Coroners' juries have traditional
reputation for stupidity and pcrverseneSs, and
this one Certainly has done nothing to diminish
the popular want of confidence in
the vcrdicts of such bodies The result of the
inquest is no doubt acceptable enough to the
Carmansville police, who find themselves off
cially supported in the convenient hypothesis
Of accidental death. But the jury themselves
demonstrated the improperly of their own
verdict when they visited the spot at which the
remains were found and realized the extreme
difficulty of getting there even for strong men
In full daylight Notwithstanding this evidence
of their own senses they subsequently agreed
that delicate child had wadcd out into the
marsh in tho dark and having broken her arm
and leg had then lain down and waited for the
tide to drown her On the whole fatuous
conclusion, if ever there was one.
The evidence in the case Is fragmentary and
by no means clear There are several circum-
stances which it does not seem possible TO en-
one fact stands ont strongly and clearly from
all tho misty surroundings. and that is the i'm
possibility of Lena Zorn having made her way
to where her body was found Of her own volt
ton. That her arm and leg were broken in
some way. that she was then carried to the spot
where she was found, ard that she may have
been drowned while lying crippled in the mud
is the only theory which derives any support
from the known facts. How she received the
injuries which crippled her, and by whom she
was placed in the marsh. are questions which the
police ought to have answered before this, had
they been capable instead of incapable. These
questions will probably never be answered now
unless somebody confcsses. Tho Coroner's
jury has "vindicatcd' all suspected parties, and
solved the mystery by the simple method Of
denying it's existence. But all who have fol
lowed the case will remain persuaded that the
verdict is preposterous, that the death of Lena
Zorn was not the result of accident, and that
the stupidity of tho Investigators has shielded
crime and defeated justice.
